Time series prediction of network parameters and detecting network health with network performance optimization, has been an interesting problem to solve for researchers in the field of Machine Learning and Data Mining community. These use cases are present across different industries like retail, telecom, transport with good presence in Telecom industry. However, there remains a challenge in getting a good prediction accuracy and efficiency while solving these problems. Traditional approaches typically involve extracting discriminative features from the original time series using dynamic time warping (DTW) or shapelet transformation, and traditional ML models are applied on top of these transformations to get decent accuracy. These methods are mostly ad-hoc and the performance of these models are limited as there is a separate process to extract features and another process to predict. Recommending an optimal parameters for network is normally done by training more data in traditional supervised models. There lies a challenge in the supervised learning models as these models are data hungry. If the data is insufficient, the traditional supervised models fail to converge, and mining patterns in the data can be a challenge. To address the first challenge, we propose end-to-end neural network architecture models such as Univariate/Multivariate-LSTM, LSTM - Convolutional Neural Network , CNN, LSTM-CNN which incorporates feature extraction and prediction in a single framework. To address the second challenge, Deep Reinforcement learning has been used to recommend the optimal parameters with predicted network parameters which in turn can lead to good network health. We did comprehensive empirical evaluation with various proposed methods on a large number of benchmark datasets, the approach based on Deep learning neural network models and Deep reinforcement learning methods in network parameter optimization has provided a good accuracy when compared to the existing models.
